Little action on day five, extra day added

Only 17.1 overs were possible on a frustrating fifth day at the Division Two final, which has now been stretched to an extra day in order to ensure at least one completed first innings. There will be no play tomorrow, on account of the murder of the Punjab (Pakistan) governer Salman Taseer, and hence the extra day of play will be on Thursday, the seventh day since the start of the game. Khan Research Laboratories, who had remained on 12 for 1 through the rained-out fourth day, proceeded to 74 for 2 by stumps. Mohammad Rameez provided the one spark in the day's play, producing a big inswinger to disturb Zulfiqar Jan's middle stump. KRL still trail State Bank of Pakistan by 229 runs.
